Very Cool! I Want some
i like your rims? What kind are they?

Bigal

1994 celica GT.....3sgte in a month! all helpers are welcome!!! i live in Plattsburgh, NY.
looks hot. but i hate how small our brake rotors are. you can kinda tell how fast a car is by the size of its brakes.

ss-iii splitters and 404 skirts areon. which means i need to update my sig.
nice, i'm gunna get some new rotors... could you do me a favour and take a pic at "eye level" with the rim? i just wanna see what they look like straight on because your rims are similar to mine.. 5 spoke-ish...

Lissa, there the first picture is kinda at eye level? Or are you meaning somthing different? (thanks guys for your opinions)

Rims are 18x8 (sport max racing) wrapped with Kelly's.

Ya i know that they are just stock size, but my car isn't fast, (untill the motor swap) but just makes it look a little nicer then stock rotors.

Brembo has cross drilled rotors for our car?!?!?

U buy brembo replacements and then brembo cross drills them for you. They say brembo on the sides of the rotor.
decided to go out to the lakes today when i got off work. Here are a few more new pics of my car. Gotta get my coilovers put on soon, so i can get rid of that ugly wheel gap.
Let me know what your fav. one is.

Drop that 4X4 like its hot!
Car looks hot, you need to paint that bumper and drop it and it'll be perfect. The red under the wheels looks good with the red car.

I am now a part of the ihavemorethen16gc club!
droping it is overrated, leave it up, go with comfort not bumpiness
man, your car is hot. that wasnt you who left those tracks on the ground was it
LOL na i don't burn out with my rims. (tires to exspensive) i've got aerospeed coilovers, car also goes into the bodyshop this month hopefully, getting my zyclone front, zyclone hood, 404 sides, 404 rear, 2-post spoiler with raiser blocks all painted. Plus the hole cars getting re-painted. Can't wait.
Awesome work dude, your car looks great now and after the kit it'll look even better especially with the 18" wheels. Those will really fill out and balance the look perfectly.

Are you going to paint it red again when you put the kit on? Also what do you think of the new brakes?

sorry for being a nob but where did you get the headlights?
Looks great man smile.gif
Did you notice any difference with the rotors? or is it just show?

Yes i'm re-painting it red, and i got my headlights at ToyotaWorld.com. I actually can tell a little difference. Not a huge difference, but better then before.
